Augmented Reality Defense And Virtual Reality

By Jason Cole


When it comes to war games, virtual reality is now taking on themes which relate to past world events. For example, Front Defense is an augmented reality defense game based on, and puts players in the middle of, World War II. As such, it is important that those planning on playing this game understand that is more graphic and violent than most.

An arcade style game, First Defense is based on the last firefight at the end of World War II. In the game, the Normandy invasion is long over, though the firefights of war have just began. It is at this point that Front Defense puts the player in place as an Allied Forces hero sent to battle in the last attacks by an Axis in a fictional European town.

Very realistic in style and scope, the game allows the player to hide out behind various well armed and patrolled positions while ducking, diving, switching and reloading weapons. The weapons include everything from grenades to man-mounted guns and assault rifles. For, when it comes to defeating the enemy, players often need help from as many different resources as possible.

The game, created by some of the best designers and developers uses heavy weaponry in the game as this was the case in real life. As in war, the game uses the power of virtual reality and the precision of battlefield and room scaling to create scenes which are almost as realistic as being an active member of the military.

In fact, Front Defense is one of the most active, intense and realistic war games on the market. For, the experience and intensity of the WWII shooter is the first VR to use room scaling and precision tracking. As such, it allows the player to create strategic positions which are detailed by a European town which has been taken over and is being destroyed by enemy forces.

Other features include, a wide choice of weaponry including the previously mentioned grenades and firearms, dive bombers, armored cars, tanks and other heavy equipment in an effort to defeat the enemy. When it comes to the finale, the end of the game provides an opportunity for the shooter to battle a mysterious Axis super powered weapon which has left many players feeling the finale was more than climatic.

While first shooter games have been controversial for quite some time, when played as intended, these games can often deter rather than create violent behavior. For, many individuals now use these games as a method of stress release. Still, it is important that those under 18 be supervised and monitored when it comes to playing the game or acting out different scenes.

The overall primary features are that the game is a single player model with steam leader boards. Before beginning play, it is important to note that Front Defense is a Windows based game and can be played with Windows 7 and beyond, noting that software prior to Windows 7 is not compatible. Whereas, the game has a 12GB RAM and NVIDIA graphics interface which provides some of the most color and detailed scenes than most other games on the market.
